One-man-band Keller Williams makes a surprising turn to the piano for his upcoming digital release KEYS: A Collection of Grateful Dead Covers on Piano to Benefit the Rex Foundation. KEYS finds Williamsâ€™ performing ten not-so-traditional piano versions of Grateful Dead favorites. Offering up such beloved Dead tracks as â€œTerrapin Stationâ€ and â€œAltheaâ€- and exposing Kellerâ€™s rarely seen piano-man side â€“ KEYS is a unique treat for Grateful Dead and Keller Williams fans alike.

KEYS: A Collection of Grateful Dead Covers to Benefit the Rex Foundation is available for digital download at iTunes beginning today, February 12, 2013. 100% of the proceeds of KEYS will go to benefit The Rex Foundation, the charitable non-profit organization started by the Grateful Dead to give grants to a variety of worthwhile causes.
